Good tip thanks!

Really don’t want to mess with that!

Many thanks! No rush

Thank you -may take you up on that- you have a longer handle or shorter handle? I think this is going be a hybrid process

Surprise we don’t have one for the club

I have not-didn’t know this was a thing..will look into this

Well you called it @tribbitt -I was talking to someone over the weekend who unleashed his starfish on two tanks full of mushrooms. Won't touch them. Bah! At least saved me the aggravation of having to move crabs and LPS out of tank first for no benefit

Ok -it looks like using a chocolate chip starfish to eradicate mushrooms is not going to work -so kalk it is to keep them under control I have a small syringe taken from a testing kit that I created that has a plastic edge to help pierce them. Issue is I am using 1:1 tablespoon kalk fo water...

Much different vibe! Looking forward to see how this tank grows out

I found this: https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/reef-skim-2-0-125-nano-dc-protein-skimmer-tmc Seems interesting -can’t any reviews though

I have talked to aquatic collection at length - According to them -it comes down to the way it is stored and transported -which can increase the risk if not properly done -either one. Either way -these days I would be much less inclined to buy any used tank over 6 months old-and even then..

Supposedly they like “fleshy” stationary corals that include shrooms and lps.

I can get a pic and right now so not so removable. Gave a rock full of them to @boun11 Had taken the rock out and scraped off as much as possible but they are back…

Been doing the same and may just accept that mushrooms take over the crevices and spots I can’t get. If I go starfish i really need to move out some coral, my crabs, and a conch for 7-10 days as this specific starfish will vaporize them all- so a bit hesitant.. but could be interesting...

Shrooms are not worth anything - Can prob get Yumas onto a rock but can’t get them off whatever they are currently on without killing them or damaging rock appearance

So once again my tank is on the verge of being over run with mushrooms and yumas. My current plan is to remove the euphillia and either sell them or have some one hold them, or put them in my sump for week or two and cut the starfish loose in the DT for one-two weeks and then rehome it...

I had an aiptasia issue for a bit. First released a bunch of Bergia. Got rid of a lot of them. But I had one big cojone left. Got a filefish -devoured it in 18 hours -yay but then went after my softies (demolished a bunch of zoas in 24 hrs) and was removed. The big one grew back in 3...

Nice!

Duly noted. Good to know.

We now have it so that the tank is set up on solar a battery- then a liquid natural gas generator is plugged in automatically if the battery/solar runs out. If that fails -then the fish tank may be least of the problems…
